I believe this young lady is following through with what had already been planned before her father died. This is no suprise to anyone familiar with Bindi Irwin's career.
Young lady? she is a little kid being directed by mom.
I think you are right.....
Bindi resumed filming her own wildlife series, Bindi the Jungle Girl, for the American Discovery Channel.
For what its worth, another former child star subsequently became involved in [United States Republican Party|Republican Party] politics, unsuccessfully entering a Congressional race in 1967 on a pro-war platform. She went on to hold several diplomatic posts, serving as America's delegate to many international conferences and summits.
She was appointed a delegate to the United Nations by President Richard M. Nixon in 1969. She was appointed American ambassador to Ghana (1974–76). In 1976, she became the first female Chief of Protocol of the United States which put in her charge of all State Department ceremonies, visits, gifts to foreign leaders and co-ordination of protocol issues with all US embassies and consulates.
She was ambassador to Czechoslovakia (1989–92) and witnessed the Velvet Revolution, about which she commented, "That was the best job I ever had." In 1987 she was designated the first Honorary Foreign Service Officer in US history by then US Secretary of State, George Schultz.

You are so right! And in her little mind....... she's doing what her daddy would want her to do and he would be proud of her. How can anyone attack a little child??? Bindi has been raised to be in the spotlight and to follow in Steve's shoes.... and in my opinion, she's doing a swell job of filling big shoes with little feet.
Blessings to her and her family..... at least they represented something positive and exhibited love and caring for one another.

I agree.
I think her father would be ecstatic.
From what I've seen, she is very mature for her age, a natural in front of the camera, and loves animals. I think she will do well. I wish them well. I still get a tear or two thinking about what happened to her father.
